my soul's been longing for the sheets | 1 |
yet we spend the night with valiant eyes | 2 |
it's the two of us against the darkness | 3 |
it's as if the frogs have synthesizers | 4 |
we laugh about and wonder. | 5 |
| |
it's me and you against the glare. | 6 |
in this ill game to stay awake. | 7 |
we grow pale. we eat squash fries we mistook | 8 |
for jaundiced potatoes. | 9 |
sweet potatoes. | 10 |
| |
because of these nights my player met death | 11 |
but bereavement | 12 |
became an option. we have duties. | 13 |
we claim to be responsible. but insensitive. | 14 |
| |
sunshine's about to hit the streets in a few minutes. | 15 |
say goodbye. tonight's another date. | 16 |
